DO NOT USE STANDARD BANK

Absolutely Useless Bank

Despite Going into Standard Bank with certified documents and the branch staff emailing internally their business banking department. I have been met with nothing but distant, obfuscation, confusion and general lack of interest. The matter is still not resolved 17 days after 1st contact. There is even an “escalation email address” and guess what “nothing, zippo, nada”.

This response is typical of an automated response in order to “improve their rating”. The matter is still not resolved and the ********** service received to date is going to force a me to move ALL banking elsewhere.

Lol - unbelievable- TOTALLY ***********- yes a wonderfully helpful lady called - asking about a TOTALLY different topic - offering to open a bank account for a totally different “business “. That has absolutely nothing to do with the current “now 21 day old” outstanding query. ‘OH BUT our internal Hellopeter” referral manager “gave that information” and on the CIPC system -……….what a lot of *********** staff and systems. Oh I see that it appears as if the 1st person you dealt with referred your query to the wrong department. My comment. No less than 4 other people in your chain have had the ability to refer it to the correct people. So you only react to Hellopeter complaints.
